Selected from “Place of the Inside Out,” from the 2013 VICE Photo Issue.

We visit Asger Carlsen in his studio in Chinatown and talk to him about his life, his work, and why he is both a lazy artist and obsessed with making art. To get a closer look at his creative process, we follow him as he photographs a model in his studio, and we chat about his recent collaboration with Roger Ballen for the 2013 VICE Photo Issue.
